    I feel like I won the Golden Ticket!! Bought this as a surprise Christmas gift for my Son. I can hardly wait to see the look on his face when he sees thanks to Best Buy I was able to purchase the PS5 he’s been wanting for a long time now!

    We all know how awesome the PS5 is already, with it's unique catalog of games and insane power at the price point vs even high powered gaming PC's. I'd like to shout out Best Buy for being the retailer who handles console sales most fairly.

    I was so glad to finally be able to get my hands on one. The purchase went through smoothly and the pick up date was sooner than expected. The PS5 was all we wanted it to be and more. We look forward to the future hours of gameplay.

    This thing is a beast! I was sitting on a fence for a while deciding whether build a gaming PC or buy a next gen console. I went with PS5 and have zero regrets. The only issue was the absolute gd Nightmare of an experience with a the assistant manager at the store.

    Still baffled why Sony and Microsoft didn't include larger SSds, but its hard to find fault with either next gen console. Have both and love them both. We'll see how these controllers hold up, drifting is starting to surface from some people online.

    What can I say? I’ve been a PS user since the PS1 days. This has proven to be a jewel for my preteen as he was lucky enough to secure one on the release date. It has provided him with great entertainment, especially during the pandemic. We love it!

    I had a great and bad time trying to get this thing. I have had all the systems since I was a kid and this is the first I brought myself. The system has been working fine and enjoying the games I got for it. Worth the hassle and time to get and been having a blast.

    As technology advances, it becomes a shocker by just how big and bulky playstation 5 is. It works well, but make sure you have loads of shelf space for your new console.

    Box was beat up and shipping was a bit late but it did arrive for the most part on time and in tact. In regards to the system, Flawless!!!! If you do not have one of these things life is just as cool as others. Only issue is the low amount of sleep from gaming too much.

    Bought this as a gift to my boyfriend and he is in love with it! The only game is seems to struggle with is Cod but I think they just need to patch it up and this lil baby right here will be absolutely perfect! Doesn’t get too hot, isn’t too loud! Absolutely a great buy

    I very much like the sony play station 5 digital edition console, it is fun to use and since it was a long time since a new play station was released from sony it was very exciting to get this one, also this version is cheaper and i can spend more $ on games.

    Had it easy to buy and go enjoy. After so long finally got one and it's so worth it and you also need to get an 8k display for full effect which they have as well.

    My daughter was so excited when she opened the box and it was a PS5!!! Best Buy made that possible with a interest free plan and we got some games to go with it! It was nice to have some brightness at this end of year after so much stress and change for everyone.

    Good Console But Bad Controllers

    Amazing console!! My only complaint is the ps5 controller. The analog stick will start to drift when playing certain games. From that point on, it’s difficult to play some games normally…

    This thing has been amazing so far. I am really looking forward to when more games can take advantage of all the processing power. So far I have been playing COD on it non-stop. The part I love the most about this machine, is that loading times are so much faster.

    Do you really need this right now?

    I have no doubt this console will be worth the money invested over time but truthfully I have not played more then a handful of games exclusive to this console that would justify owning one of these right now. It has only been a year since release but if you are one of these struggling to purchase this due to the limited availability then I would suggest you dont lose sleep/ stress out over acquiring one quite yet. Give it another year and the library will shape up and you will likely be able to purchase the games you want at a much lower price.

    I got this product a few months back and I have never had any problems with it. The graphics are very good and crystal clear. There is no lag or delay and the 120 fps is very good. It runs games very smoothly. Overall, I highly recommend this product.
